I'm running adprep from the win2k8 cd..

I'm attempting to add a few win2k8 DCs to the domain.

Here is the error I get from the adprep.log, unfortunately I can't figure out what exactly I can do about it not being able to find a tmp file!?

Adprep was unable to complete because the call back function failed.

Check the log file ADPrep.log, in the C:\WINDOWS\debug\adprep\logs\20080916112019 directory for more information.



Adprep was unable to update forest information.

[Status/Consequence]

Adprep requires access to existing forest-wide information from the schema master in order to complete this operation.

Check the log file, ADPrep.log, in the C:\WINDOWS\debug\adprep\logs\20080916112019 directory for more information.


any ideas?

A quick google shows a few things of which this is one:

Did you bounce the schema master beforehand?

thanks for the link from google, I had done some searching and realized there wasn't much out there..

anyhow I did resolve the issue, basically I transferred all of the FSMO roles to another DC, one that wasn't doing anything other than being a DC.. ADPREP ran fine and everything appears to be working at the moment.

Glad it worked. I had something similar with Exchange 2007 schema updates so would have been interesting to see if a reboot or similar would have helped.
